OMNIS: acc. pl. A. 55, c; G. 60, 1; H. 67. EFFECERIT MOLLEM: so 56 poteratne tantus animus efficere non iucundam senectutem; but 56 conditiora facit haec aucupium. Efficio gives more emphatically than facio the idea of the completion of the action. Cf.
He seemed determined not to be outdone in fecundity by the most prolific of his contemporaries as though it were a safe speculation or a healthy emulation to run against such light horsemen and horsewomen as Mr James and M. Dumas, and Mesdames Gore and Trollope. Hence he might have appropriately echoed the complaint of the slave in Terence: 'Parum succedit quod ago, at facio sedulò.
Or is it a sight of such overpowering grandeur as to deprive us of consciousness, and throw us into a state of dreamy inactivity? We shall see. "Beatific Vision" is composed of three Latin words, beatus, happy; facio, I make; and visio, a sight; all of which taken together make up and mean a happy-making sight.
I want to walk to Wellington, to get some things at Cherry's." Pike? Ah! I am very glad of that. But I fear it can only be fly-books." "I want a little Horace for eighteen-pence the Cambridge one just published, to carry in my pocket and a new hank of gut." "Which of the two is more important? Put that into Latin, and answer it." "Utrum pluris facio? Flaccum flocci. Viscera magni."
"Fecit!" repeated the clergyman; "is that German?" "Nein dat isht Latin; facio, feci, factum, facere feci, feciste, FECIT. It means make, I suppose you know." The parson looked at me, and at my dress and figure, with open surprise, and smiled as his eye glanced at his daughter.
His body was interred in the church of Sant Andrea at Rome, and was subsequently transferred to Milan to be deposited finally under the stone which covered the bones of his father in the church of San Marco. This tomb, which Jerome had erected after Fazio's death, bore the following inscription: FACIO CARDANO Mors fuit id quod vixi: vitam mors dedit ipsa, Mens æterna manet, gloria tuta quies.
At all periods down to 1600, some hands are found in which it is impossible to distinguish between c and t; and hence in mediaeval times, and even later, such forms as fatio, loto, pecieris, licterae are not infrequently found for facio, loco, petieris, litterae.
'Tis true, I never make a promise nunquam facio votum, except in certain cases, or, in other words, Dionysius, exceptis excipiendis in which is the essence, as it were, of a proper vow. In the meantime he proceeded 'With regard to your prospects in the church, I can only say, in the first place, and I say it with much truth and sincerity that I'm badly off for a horse; that, however, is, as I said, inter nos sub sigillo.
Certainly in 1703 the London clockmakers had nothing with which to block Facio's application; if, therefore, in 1705 they had a jeweled watch, it looks much as if they must have deliberately prepared it as an argument against the Genevan's request being granted. What the facts were we shall probably never know; but at least poor Facio lost the glory due him for his invention.
He had in his service, either successively or together, George of Trebizond, the younger Chrysoloras, Lorenzo Valla, Bartolommeo Facio and Antonio Panormita, of whom the two latter were his historians; Panormita daily instructed the King and his court in Livy, even during military expeditions. These men cost him yearly 20,000 gold florins.
